I guess the flu shot missed the mark this year. Day five of fever and misery. I think I've been sick like this maybe 4-5 times in my life. Today is a little better, so hopefully it's almost done. I have a free trial to binge my comfort show, and I'll be #knitting my hyperfix pattern as a cowl. 🥣💊🧃🧶🤒

I found this cool gadget to help me see the microscopic details of textiles! I'm considering starting a YouTube channel to help educate people about garments and textiles, and I thought this could be a useful tool for such a project. Feel free to comment if you have a question you'd like covered!
